So while you’re equipping your newly found rifle a zombie may just sneak up behind you. You are also faced with many situations where you must tap the gamepad over and over to unlock a door, open a new shortcut or even quickly put in a security code that just happens to be missing a number. Survival mode is where you have the one character and must survive as long as possible in the attempt to finish the game. Once a player has become infected and died your friends will be notified and they are able to go there and put your old survivor out of its misery allowing them to loot your gear.

I guess they are worried a lot of people would just race amongst their friends given the option. The Prepper will often talk to you about where to go and what to do but he is not very instructive and when anything juicy starts to happen in the storyline he often stops talking. With your Wii U pad you can scan around your location and analyse items you can loot, hack doors to unlock them or hack the CCTV to gain a rough location. Although when in a tight situation you may come across, flares, grenades or mines which may just help you take out that horde of zombies blocking your way. If you make one stupid mistake or don’t check that one corner then BAM it’s all over forever and the last thing you see are the credits. Each player has their own set of challenges in which to win the match. Surviving against the Zombie King’s Bombers can be a real challenge. The Zombie King’s objective is not only to distract, kill or stop the survivor but to use his own minions to capture his own flags. The details put into the zombies is pretty amazing but when you are whacking them with your bat or shooting them in the head it’s very repetitive and looks the same.

I am not easily scared but haven’t felt this way about any horror game on any console in a long time. Allowing the King of Zombies to place zombie hordes at different locations on the map for the survivor to defeat.
And I am not even pissed that it will finally get a + version now that I spent money on it, because, hey, welcome to this wonderful game all our future Drive Club members!

It is difficult to take on barley any more than two zombies at a time as it can take up to 4-6 hits with your cricket bat just to take out one, if you’re lucky. Although there is a lot of blood everything seems to blend together in the landscape making it easy to get lost. Each level up on the Gamepad allows the King of Zombies to upgrade the types of zombies on the field and increase the damage or capacity on the map at a given time.
Ammo for the survivor is unlimited but there is a respawn time for each item that is picked up.
To make things worse your map picks up birds and rats which may become frightening when you see a dozen red markers running at you.
Sometimes the safe house will be attacked by a horde of zombies leaving you too defend yourself.
Sudden alarms doors going off, birds flying at you and the creeping eerie sounds lurking in the dark almost sound realistic.
